Lucid claims it’s achieved a “landmark” 5 miles-per-kilowatt-hour efficiency with its 2025 Air Pure electric sedan, making it one of the most energy-efficient vehicles ever produced. When it starts deliveries, Lucid said it will have a record 146 MPGe and an EPA-estimated range of 420 miles.
The Air Pure is Lucid’s most affordable model starting at $69,900. For the new model year, the battery was slightly reduced in size from 88kWh to 84kWh. It also includes the new energy-saving and cold weather-fighting heat pump technology that was first included with the company’s $249,000 “Sapphire” model and later added to the Touring and Grand Touring models.
Lucid is taking a risk that luxury EV shoppers will care as much about abstract specs…
